Dear Delta and MOM executives, Red velvet cake historically came from a little bit of a different recipe. Now back in the day, the cocoa powder we were using was a little bit more dusty and musty... The cocoa powder would oxidize via a chemical reaction while it mingles with air. This oxidization caused the powder to turn from brown to red. Thus, the resultant cake would be a pleasant red color. In my opinion, I believe this type of thing may have been more impressive before we figured out shit like science and the internet. Red velvet and chocolate cake today are two distinct understandings (culinarily). The modern red velvet recipe typically uses red food coloring as you've mentioned. The GMO artists over at Monsanto have mastered no longer letting our powder oxidize. In addition, red velvet recipes typically call upon a cream cheese frosting, whereas the most common frosting for chocolate cake is either chocolate or vanilla buttercream icing. In my opinion, though the two cakes are now somewhat distinct, they are - in essence - the same thing. I picked up on the tidbit (potentially theoretical) that your favorite cake flavor is yellow cake with chocolate frosting. As a fellow woman of taste, we may only hope the red velvet people and the chocolate people put down their weapons and catch up to us. Cheers to you, mother. ❤❤❤ Love, Very JD 🔸️🔶️🔶️🔸️🔸️🔶️🔶️🔸️🔸️
Came here to say this! Old red velvet cake recipes also included vinegar, which contributed to the oxidization. In place of vinegar, I use a splash of freshly brewed coffee, which has similar acidic properties - I find that it adds a smooth richness and goes wonderfully with the cocoa. I get where Delta is coming from though - most places do NOT make good red velvet cake and leave me underwhelmed. Not me, though
A lot words but you didn’t mention the biggest factor which is vinegar, red velvet has vinegar in it. That’s why it tastes less sweet and salad like. It F-ing Gross.
I love Candis! Living legend, icon, and THE doll! So happy to see LGBTQIA+ trailblazers getting their flowers on platforms like this - it helps educate the next generation of queer folks. Incredible!
@cindyshirreffs2099 yall have never had actual red velvet and its shows... real southern red velvet cake is actually a chocolate cake that happens to be red.
I came here for "Huuuuht it !!!" and it was promptly delivered at 0:09 with no time wasted. That was VERY DELTA. Thank you. I may now go on with my day.
Delta, I have to say that you are on to something with this show. You are such a great interviewer, I love your humor and esthetic and I love your book recommendations. I would LOVE, LOVE to see you interview people outside the drag world as well!
Wendy Williams is homophobic and transphobic…she is problematic and it’s insane that gays obsess over her. Delta is far superior, she’s thoughtful and smart, not mean & vapid like Wendy.
I adore Candis Cayne , i swear she is just absolutely a natural beauty in every way , and Delta ...DELTA !! ..she IS THAT queen !!! Ya heard...??????????😂🤣😂
What a coincidence! I am from the red velvet region, but it’s not Idaho 😂 I’m from Madrid, Spain. Delta, you have to come here but not in the summer (too hot). The best part: is cheaper than USA, they serve free tapas with a drink ❤ and lots of glamour!
I literally just watched Too Wong Foo not even a week ago. One of my favorite movies ever! Love it! Then three days later my BF surprised me with the dvd that I will cherish forever. It’s literally on one of my dressers standing up against my things right where everyone can see it lol
since i was a wee one i've watched romancing the stone and the jewel of the nile enough times i couldn't count. i still listen to the jewel soundtrack. the freaks DO come out at night.
Love the way delta Neva interrupts . always waits for guests to finish what they are saying..then gives her opinion or answer s the question...love it ... never rude always relevant that's our delta ...lum ... love you much delta...
I love Delta talking in my ear about the dislike of red velvet cake before I go to bed, it’s like listening to rain splash on a window, I’m so relaxed. Love you Delta
In Postsoviet countries Red velvet was made with beetroot juice, you couldn't see the inside until you cut it, so it was delicious and not as unhealthy as the one sold today in the states.
Dear Delta the prophetess, Im astonished and genuinely moved from your dissertation on red velvet cake. Not only upon listening did I absolutely agree, I cussed out all red velvet cakes in existence. Furthermore, today marks the day that my darling angel kitten was sent to the hospital for getting into, guess what, a poorly sliced wedge of Porto’s red velvet cake (which contains chocolate but doesn’t even taste chocolatey like what?? What is the actual point of red velvet cake if not just the food coloring??). Anyways, thank you, Delta, as always for your service to this country. May God bless you
Red velvet cake is mildly CHOCOLATE with a tart profile cake dyed red w/ cream cheese icing. LOVE it!!❤ there’s are many different red velvet cakes out there.
So, about the red velvet- I think the point was to add very small amount of coco powder in the cake batter with the acidic vinegar- which reacts and gives the cake a faint, dusty pink hue, but not red. The colour thing happened later. The technique of making red velvet is slightly different and should give you a more moist cake( I think it’s called reverse creaming). Having said that, all my knowledge on this is coming from watching Claire Saffits and not because of any culinary experience
Delta every time you go off it’s always so sensible and affirming to the way I feel, but I have to tell you, this soliloquy on red velvet cake being nothing special makes me feel so seen. I am forever grateful.
a massive raise for whoever supplied that fan!!!

Really interesting, I will save this to bring up in conversation about how I hate red velvet lol
Some also used beet juice to make it red
Isn’t red velvet cake a peasant food from the Great Depression?
Your discussion on red velvet cake was enchanting
That. Part.
Do not EVER bring her a plain cake donut.
@@aboy1983 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💗💗💗
Yeah, the cake is f-ing overrated and tasteless. Why are people so obsessed with a cardboard-flavoured spongy mess?
@@yesh_phani.25 because it tastes sweet and good with coffee
I love Candis! Living legend, icon, and THE doll!

Only DELTA can go on a 10 min rant over red velvet cake 😂 🍰 Makes me wanna fight red velvet cake. 😂Oooooooo the cherries are back.
From those of us who have been hating red velvet without being heard, thank you Delta ❤
"Red" is not a flavour!

@salomonrael8117 I I guess it doesn't help that I don't live in USA?!
I came here for "Huuuuht it !!!" and it was promptly delivered at 0:09 with no time wasted. That was VERY DELTA. Thank you. I may now go on with my day.
The way Delta’s hair didn’t move at all 😂 love them both dearly
Back in the 90's , will never forget seeing CANDIS rollerblading down the Hudson river. It was magic!
this whole video is just delta fangirling over Candis and honestly SAME
I just love Candis Cayne, she is just so beautiful and articulate. She has had an amazing career.
The moment with the hair and fan had me crying. Delta's hair didn't move a goddamn inch 🤣
I love how I'm seeing this on August 29 which is apparently Candis' birthday !! How apropo 😊
Happy Birthday Ms. Cayne !
delta is literally so incredible at this, like it’s so aspirational
I fell deeper in love with Candis after this interview ❤❤
Candis Cayne is such a stunning woman ! Just so stunning !
I could listen to you two talk for days. Love you both!
Delta is smart and engaging! Just the right amount of interaction with the guest and knows how to let a show flow naturally.
The red velvet issue needed to be discussed. Thank you, Delta. And thank you, Candice ; for keeping the folks of Maui in your heart. ❤️
THIS opening monologue put me on the floor laughing - Delta, you are on screen magic.
Delta always has the best guest. This is def top 5 so far. Candice is so sensual and beautiful. I couldn’t wait for this episode. 😂😂😂
The talkshow these two deserve is UNREAL! The wisdom and stories these Beauties must have. Legands❤
Candis Cayne is that girl! If 'French Vanilla Fantasy' was a person ❤
Omg. I love Candice so much!! HIT IT!!!!
Very Delta gave voice to the unbridled rage within me over Red Velvet cake. Ty for serving the community like always. ❤
From now on Candis Cayne eating Fritos will be the default picture in my brain. Locked!
I woke up at 3 am just to watch this episode. I LOVE CANDIS AND DELTA!
Loved this show ! Xoxo Great job Delta, and adore Candis.
What a treat!!! Thank you for this. I wish it never ended
She’s so breathtakingly gorgeous
And Candis is cute too!
Praise Jesus that someone finally spoke the truth on red velvet cake. I have been waiting for this.
I found Candis absolutely brilliant, lovely and funny.Likewise Delta. Thank you both for a great show.
Delta, I have to say that you are on to something with this show. You are such a great interviewer, I love your humor and esthetic and I love your book recommendations. I would LOVE, LOVE to see you interview people outside the drag world as well!
You make my Monday morning commute bearable. Thank you Delta 😊
Miss Cayne is an oracle.
Can I just say I have never been the type to sit through a podcast show like this, but this one I could watch all day. Thanks Delta and team!
This episode was such a wonderful thing to wake up to today. Candis is an inspiration.
Two of my absolute faves!!! Miss you in NYC Candis!!!
Loved having conversations with candis at the club she used to host every other sunday in asbury park nj. HIT IT!
candis is literally enchanting
Need Delta on Give it to me Straight and Maddy on Very Delta for the cross over event of Drag Journalism.
You're the Wendy Williams of podcasts gurl
Wendy Williams is homophobic and transphobic…she is problematic and it’s insane that gays obsess over her. Delta is far superior, she’s thoughtful and smart, not mean & vapid like Wendy.
And she is the moment
No no no. Wendy is step Auntie, Delta is Mother.
@@frankiewestberryid say delta is tia but you call her mama and wendy is prima 😂😂
omg ur soooo right
Candis is just one of the best people in the world. Love you Candis. I still remember meeting you at the Roxy so many moons ago. You've done so much ❤
I feel like I've been waiting for this Red Velvet my whole life, I've been saying this forever! Thanks for making me feel seen 🔶️
I adore Candis Cayne , i swear she is just absolutely a natural beauty in every way , and Delta ...DELTA !! ..she IS THAT queen !!! Ya heard...??????????😂🤣😂
Best analysis of red velvet cake! I can't wait for you to take it down 😂
Candis is a superstar!

Here in Brazil we make red velvet cakes with beets and it's delicious! Love you Delta!
Great episode! LOVE Candis Cayne! Yes Delta please come to Amsterdam! 💜✨💜
"I don't keep in my bag, like a gun of frosting & peanuts to put on a donut." 🤣🍩❤
since i was a wee one i've watched romancing the stone and the jewel of the nile enough times i couldn't count. i still listen to the jewel soundtrack. the freaks DO come out at night.
Amazing episode!! The fan moment with Miss Candis was life givingggggg💖👏💖💅💖
What a delightful woman. I never knew I loved Candis Cayne until now.
During the Red Velvet segment, I pictured Stacey Layne Matthews dressed in red velvet toasting "Cheers I'm so glad you're here" to Delta.
Monday isn't complete without hearing Delta go off.
Love the way delta Neva interrupts . always waits for guests to finish what they are saying..then gives her opinion or answer s the question...love it ... never rude always relevant that's our delta ...lum ... love you much delta...

"a champurrado" deserved its little caption 😢
only at the intro but omg delta's hair!!! 😍🔶
I pray she starts doing full episodes on her going off
Can’t wait for this interview, first saw Candis in ABC’s Dirty Sexy Money and have been a fan ever since.
A legendary interview. And a Romancing the Stone reference? I'm overwhelmed.
The reason I love Mondays
Looking forward to the Halloween looks 🫶🏼
Candis is a true icon suuuch a presence
I am literally crying at my desk here at work at 2:34 a.m. at this discussion and invitation to Red Velvet Cake to come on the show and defend itself
15:09 ❤❤❤ the absolute best. she brought her own wind 🥰
I felt so seen by your red velvet cake monologue 😢! ‘It tastes like nothing!’ Truer words!
What a great episode/interview! So genuine and beautiful. ❤
“You can walk” … “Walk?” ….LMFAO LOVE YOU DELTA & CANDIS 🌸🥰💕💖
In Postsoviet countries Red velvet was made with beetroot juice, you couldn't see the inside until you cut it, so it was delicious and not as unhealthy as the one sold today in the states.
Omg that’s why you have this Career!! Thank you Delta!!!!
Love Delta! In a typical red velvet cake two ingredients that are NOT in other cakes (in general): buttermilk + vinegar. The color is happy.
this Delta hair is just...... VERY delta. so beautiful
I LOVE CANDIS CAYNE!! I'm so excited for this!
OMG I LOVE CANDACE and DELTA
❤
Thank you Delta for being able to articulate the feelings; w/references reflecting my culture 🥰🥰🥰,
about one of the least exciting cakes🥮♥️!
this episode is full of love... AMAZING! 🔶🔶🔶
The children need an unboxing episode, a perfume haul

Indeed. It’s the Pumpkin Spice Latte of cakes. A total bandwagon.
Red velvet cake is mildly CHOCOLATE with a tart profile cake dyed red w/ cream cheese icing. LOVE it!!❤ there’s are many different red velvet cakes out there.
This was one of the best episodes in a while! Love the chemistry between you two.

I’m living for the visual merchandising this week!
I cannot begin to get into how long I've crushed on Candis & Carmen. Og dawls. 🤟🏿🌌💜
Living for this episode❤️ my favorite so far!! Both look so beautiful. I went off on Red Velvet Cake myself very recently. It’s like, WHAT THE FUCK?
LIVING LEGEND Candis Cayne!
Delta every time you go off it’s always so sensible and affirming to the way I feel, but I have to tell you, this soliloquy on red velvet cake being nothing special makes me feel so seen. I am forever grateful.
I have died on this red velvet hill many times. I stand with u!
Delta.. Wow! What a great show!
I love when Jackie Beat mimics the Hit It like that before she does a numbuh! Haha
Love the hair!❤ it fits you so well !
This episode was amazing ❤❤❤
“I’ve don’t nothing to help my body” 🤣
oml your hair this week delta is giving me all the life, I'd kill to have hair like that but red
I knew her back when she was a boy! In the nyc days! No one could high kick and twirl like she could!
omg I just realized Very Scary Delta is just around the corner 💜🔶🔸🔶
